Well I got the flywheel back from the machine shop and ordered a ton of new parts including a new heavy duty clutch and water pump. Now the entire cooling system will be new. https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...0f5ff1a658.jpg
Which machine shop in AB did you use? |

Got around to getting the exhaust done this morning. True duel, two and a half inch pipes into Flowmaster super 40 series. Exits out in front of the rear wheels. Sounds a lot better than the rusted out set that was on it.

I found out it shows 1/8 of a tank left when it runs out of gas. I killed the battery trying to get gas to the carb once I filled the tank. I got it towed at AAA's cost to a mechanic who put her on a charger and eventually got it up, running and on to work a couple hours late. So at least I know where empty is now.

Replaced my old rusty bumper. Fit is not exactly what I wanted but will do for now. Later I'll remove and modify the brackets to move it up and in a bit.

1975 F100

I’ve been working on my 1975 F100 the last couple days, when I get a chance. I removed and recovered the bench seat and cut out the rusty passenger floorboard. Today I’m hoping to do more prepping to the floorboard to get it ready to weld in the new pan. Wish he luck! HAHA

Actually, I got lucky and found it on eBay in a damaged box. Only paid $100!

Put the core support back in.... finally making progress again!

Installed the new cowl windlace from Bronco Graveyard. It's one clip too long but I remembered reading that somewhere so wasn't too surprised. Also bought 25' of 5/16 steel tube to make new cooling lines for the transmission.
